Tencent's Polaris Quest unveils its ambitious open-world RPG, Light of Motiram, slated for mobile release alongside PC and console versions. This announcement, following the Project Mugen title reveal, is generating significant buzz.
Initially revealed on Chinese social media (via Gematsu), Light of Motiram will launch on Epic Games Store, Steam, PlayStation 5, and mobile. The game's impressive visuals and feature set raise questions about its feasibility on mobile devices.
What exactly is Light of Motiram? It's a blend of genres, defying easy categorization. Think open-world RPG elements reminiscent of Genshin Impact, combined with base-building (Rust), customizable mechanical creatures (Horizon Zero Dawn), and even hints of Palworld's creature-collecting mechanics. The sheer scope is both surprising and intriguing, though concerns remain about its successful implementation across multiple platforms, especially mobile.
A mobile beta is reportedly in development. We'll await further details on how Tencent and Polaris Quest plan to optimize this visually rich, systems-heavy game for smartphones.
